Flutter Android Build fails with android.multidex does not exist

I've updated my version of flutter and now my Android build fails. Here is a screen shot of the error I'm getting when I execute: flutter run.

enter image description here

If I try to execute ./gradlew clean on the android project directly, I get

Execution failed for task ':gradle:compileGroovy'. BUG! exception in phase 'semantic analysis' in source unit '/opt/homebrew/Caskroom/flutter/3.22.0/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/src/main/groovy/app_plugin_loader.groovy' Unsupported class file major version 65

I've tried updating homebrew, but this is still an issue. Any ideas???

Here is my flutter doctor print out, in case it helps.

Solution

  • Check your gradle file at: android/app/build.gradle

    inside "defaultConfig"

    defaultConfig {
 multiDexEnabled true
}

    and inside "dependencies"

    dependencies {
implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.0'
}
